      BTW.  Typically in a boycott there should be a well-defined goal.  
      What action by Apple will cause the boycott to be stopped?

   Could someone at FSF answer this one?  A clear statement of
   termination conditions, and the assurance that John Sculley et al have
   in hand the same clear statement, would go a long way toward making me,
   and probably many other long-time Mac users, reconsider support of the
   boycott.

You want some at the LPF to answer this one.  The FSF is just a
corporate member of LPF and is supporting the boycott.

My understanding is that the boycott of any given company will be
dropped when it drops all suits based on User Interface copyright and
state that they will no longer claim to have same on any interface.
